He's the final boss of fine dining chefs.

I mean, he is... He's the Bowser.

He is the Bowser.

Peaches, peaches, peaches, peaches, peaches.

I mean, he is one of the most famous chefs in the world, like, indisputably.

He's entirely influential.

Flowers.

Moss.

He sort of proliferated new Nordic cuisine in terms of how much foraging and fermenting sort of came to the forefront in the last 20 or so years of fine dining.

I was like, oh, shit.

I'm actually standing in the middle of all this food.

He's now, you know, influenced multiple generations of chefs at this point over the last couple of decades.

He's been knighted by, you know, the Queen of Denmark.

This is a very influential figure in the culinary world.

And he's been accused of some ish.

Yeah, there are a lot of allegations, and I should say that a number of them sort of started trickling out a few years ago.

But in February, a former NOMA staff member, he was the former head of the fermentation lab.

His name is Jason Ignacio White.

He began posting Instagram, you know, screenshots, basically, of these anonymous, allegedly former NOMA staff and interns who were sharing their stories.

And he was also talking about his own experience alleging abuse, specifically, mostly under Rene Redzepi.
